Value & Conclusion

  • The In Win BUC sells for €69.90 at CaseKing. Our fellow US based readers will have to fork over around 95 US Dollars excl. taxes.
  • Cool looks! In Win logo lights up!
  • Agressive price point
  • Excellent quality
  • Plenty of space for large mainboards, graphics cards and CPU coolers
  • Includes three fans
  • Hot-swap hard drive bays on the side
  • Easy to remove front covers
  • Plastic locking mechanism for expansion cards works surprisingly well
  • Locking "pins" for optical bays hold drives in place well
  • Enough space below mainboard tray for cable management
  • Tray on top to place stuff in
  • Nifty neon green accents
  • Cool package
  • Hard drive trays hard to remove and replace
  • Hard drive trays require assembly before use
  • SATA power and data cables cannot be removed
  • Blue LEDs front fan don't fit the red In Win logo
  • I/O and case cables are of default color
  • Basically no real sound encapsulation
  • No dust filter in front
  • Basic USB 3.0 implementation
  • Looks may not be for everyone
In Win - manufacturer of detailed designed cases. The company produces cases which at times are so far fetched in terms of looks that one may wonder and think "who would buy this case?". This may be the same response you will have when looking at the BUC for the first time. But upon closer inspection the entire design seems to make sense as the separate elements are well utilized, thus combining looks with functionality. The hot-swap bay on the side is a great idea, but the fact that the trays are extremely hard to remove puts a real dampener on things. Besides that, In Win once again manages to squeeze a whole lot of value into this chassis. Three fans, functional screw-less systems, a useful top tray with a USB 3.0 connector, very good cable management are all part of this case, but In Win still manages to keep the price very competitive without sacrificing anything in terms of their great build quality.
